Ghosting Quotes

“I discover that absence has a consistency, like the dark water of a river, like oil, some kind of sticky dirty liquid that you can struggle and perhaps drown in. It has a thickness like night, an indefinite space with no landmarks, nothing to bang against, where you search for a light, some small glimmer, something to hang on to and guide you. But absence is, first and foremost, silence. A vast, enveloping silence that weighs you down and puts you in a state where any unforeseeable, unidentifiable sound can make you jump.”

“As a researcher deeply immersed in the field of human interaction, universal laws, and the profound impacts of education on societal behaviors, I posit that ghosting transcends mere social rudeness; it might be a manifestation of our internal psychological landscapes. Ghosting could reflect our deepest fears of abandonment, our struggles with self-worth, or even a subconscious desire for an undefined existence in relationships. My exploration into this phenomenon suggests that education in emotional intelligence and self-awareness could serve as a beacon, not only illuminating the path to heal from ghosting but also to prevent it. By understanding that our external experiences might mirror our internal states, we can foster a society where empathy and presence are not just valued but are the norm. This isn't just about changing individual behaviors; it's about transforming our collective social fabric through knowledge and empathy.”

“Sometimes Evelyn got stuck on a word, using it for everything until it started to mean nothing and everything. This week, it was “world.” Everything was the world. The world was everything. It made sense from that vantage point, but the previous week, it had been “wax,” which had the bonus quality of being both a noun and a verb. I waxed her breakfast of wax and then had the wax to give her wax when she really wanted the world. World? Whirled. Whorled. Were Eld. Was she working her way through the dictionary? It was like the language of flowers, a song heard in a different lifetime.”

“Imagine hiring a plumber who shows up, looks at your fucked plumbing, then announces, 'I shall return thousands, millions or billions of years from now and then I will fix all the plumbing and everything will be perfect. Trust me. Honest, Guv.' What would you do? Put up with your fucked plumbing and pray every day to the Plumber Messiah who never comes and never fixes any plumbing, or hire a different plumber who actually does his fucking job and fixes your broken plumbing? The idea of a Messiah who shows up and is so clueless and inept that he can’t think of anything better than committing 'suicide by Romans' is like the darkest comedy sketch ever. Jesus Christ is not a plumber who fixes the plumbing. This is a plumber who shows up and wrecks the plumbing, then promises to come back, but never does.”
